The public (non-fandom) memorial for Lucy will be held this Thursday July 29th at 2:00 pm at the 59ers Club in Tyendinega. It will be a very informal gathering to remember her. Anyone is welcome to speak but if you are attending and *definitely* wanting to speak, please comment.

Again, we will plan a fandom memorial later.

it's been a week with alex, doing very little other than running some necessary errands and spending a lot of time in the hotel, just talking and being together and sucking up the a/c. we went to the mothership yesterday and I got to ride one of their electric carts, and can I just say those things kick ass? it was so fun! and I totally didn't ( Read more... )

I had last week off work as a consequence of being in the hospital until Wednesday, and I sort of assumed that I'd be able to fully recover from the stomach crud that I was experiencing in the next four days and be able to turn to my job.
